You thought that he was gonna be the person that advances America's position on the global stage and defends and protects it and never insults those who serve the interests of the United States. That was what you. Thought he was doing right. How's that working out for you?
How is that working out? After a week where we've seen the stock market crash because of his economic policies and there is disaster after disaster on the global stage. And what's he doing While all of this stuff burns down. You know what he's doing. He's doing what he's done for about a third of his presidency so far, and that's going out golfing.
s bad enough that he's going [:Dr. Jim: That's where his priorities are. Don't know what I'm talking about. Here's the breakdown. Four soldiers have died. While serving in the US military in Lithuania and Trump skipped honoring those killed to watch golf, and as I'm recording this, he is out on a golf cart hiding from the public. As the economy burns down and the soldiers are returned home, he's hanging out with Eric Trump. You know the son that looks like how cat pee smells. He's hanging out with him on the golf course and
what's he doing on the golf [:where by comparison, the Lithuanian president. Gathered up dignitaries, religious officials, military per personnel, and thousands of spectators to pay their respects to those four fallen American soldiers before they were sent back to the us. What does that say when the president of a foreign country knows what's appropriate, and this president, who is supposedly the man of the people, can't be bothered.
[:Don't believe me. This is a track record. Trump when it comes to the economy before he got elected. The second time has the honor of being the only president to come into office and leave with fewer jobs and lower GDP than what he started with. In fact, his economic performance was the worst since Herbert Hoover. And yet you people voted for him again because you thought that he was going to help you out and. Get you cheaper eggs.
mplete meltdown of the stock [:he had a 3000 point drop in. March of 2020, another 2300 drop in March of 2020, a 2000 point drop in March of 2020 an 1800 point drop in June of 2020.
A:And this is par for the [00:05:00] course for when Republicans are in charge. When you look at Republican administrations from the Nixon administration going forward, seven out of eight Republican administrations have driven the economy into a recession. I. This is par for the course. The only difference in this go around is that this guy has zero guardrails and even less sense than the first go around.
He's literally got nobody in his administration that's gonna call him out because if he did, he wouldn't have developed a trade policy and a tariff policy that was given to 'em by chat GPT, which is complete nonsense in. Less than 90 days in office, he has taken a strong economy, the top economy in the G seven and tanked it, and he's alienated every ally that we've had while cozying up to his boss, Vladimir Putin.
a see get wiped out over the [:He doesn't care about soldiers. He doesn't care about veterans. He doesn't care about the average American. He doesn't care about the economy that's burning down.
He doesn't care about crashing the stock market. He doesn't care about you or anything that you care about. He doesn't care about jobs, he doesn't care about unemployment, doesn't care about in inflation. He barely understands the word groceries. This is who you're dealing with and you're still lining up to lick his boots.
The question that I have for all of you Trump voters, is how much more of this are you going to need to see happen before you actually wake up
